Antigua’s color palette: zapote
The wall’s zapote color takes its name from the fruit Mammea americana, known here as zapote (click to see it) and zapote mamey in Mexico. It is a dark salmon color. Have I mentioned yet that Guatemala is great place to eat all kinds of fruits and vegetables?
After looking at the great workmanship in all those windows and doors, I have decided to do a window and door series later on.
